Phenomenal. My first 100% Tannat and I am not disappointed in the least. Full bodied, complex, perfectly-tannic... I will definitely be trying more of this varietal, which seems to be something between Zinfandel and Pinot Noir, except without any noticeable peppery notes. The oak notes on this one in particular are just perfect.

Uruguay Feb_2015; 2/14/2015-2/18/2015 (Uruguay): Lovely on the nose with red berries, floral scents and high quality oak. Full bodied, elegant, classy with excellent acidity and tannic structure. This is serious well made Tannat. It will certainly improve with more cellaring. 91+
